Update your amenities services, and programs

    We have over 2000 defined services that you can choose from to associate with the search engines - they becomes immediately available for consumers and others to search on.

    This means that if a consumer searches for resources that you denote you have, and you meet location and other criteria, your facility will appear on the search results screens. The seeker can then contact you. All the choices you make are automatically linked to your web site generated by the Web Site Wizard.


Establish relationships

    Your facility has many relationships with insurance companies, managed care payors, hospitals, and physicians. In this screen you can link and establish relationships with these groups, other facilities and individuals.  These relationships create links to the database so a consumer or professional can select relationship criteria to decide if you are the proper facility. This is especially important for hospital, physician, managed care, and insurance links.


Assign E-mail boxes

    You can assign two e-mail boxes to each department or to a generic department name. More e-mail boxes are available at a small monthly cost ($5/month).


Assign a person to manage the E-mail accounts

    Someone will have to be responsible for managing your e-mail boxes so that when new people are hired, personnel leave or are transferred, the e-mail boxes can be updated accordingly. The E-mail manager is given a special password which allows him/her to change and reassign e-mail boxes.


Set up personnel files for each department (optional)

    Each person in a department can have his/her own short, personnel record with basic information. They can choose a password and update it as needed.


Assign update authority
There are a number of update authorities:

    Global allows one ID and password to update all files in the facility. This password authority is the only one who can update the web site.
    Departmental allows each department to update their own files, including the amenities, programs, and services that are specific to them. Changes automatically update the search engines and the web site.
    Individual allows each individual to update his/her own personnel record.
    PatientNet allows access to the PatientNet bed availability search program.


Optional PatientNetTM bed availability

Through the Internet and the Medical Central Online proprietary databases, Patient Net allows Ambulatory Surgery facilities to make empty bed data available to local professional resources at any time. 

Patient Net is a time saver. It dramatically reduces phone calls and marketing costs.
